River Ruel convener Bob Clark and Stevie Cooper have been busy these last few days, he reports that access has been improved on the stretch of the River Ruel upstream from the Otter Ferry road bridge. About 250 yards from the bridge two styles and a bridge over the ditch have been built, the first style is over a fence that runs parallel to the river abouy 20 yards from it, this leads to the bridge over a deep ditch with a style incorporated into it, the first style is not obvious from the river bank.
Visitor Steven Wilson had a great day on the Lower Cur and caught this plump Brownie
Member Bob Clark caught this freshly run sea-trout from the River Ruel this morning, safely returned, “waters perfect, well worth giving it a go” said Bob.

These photos show the water level at Loch Tarsan today, it’s up a bit from late March, at least the moorings are floating and not sitting high and dry in the mud. We hope to see a bit of action up here soon.
This was announced on the Daily Record website today, lets hope there is some truth in the article, roll on Tuesday to find out !
The new tab “Local Fly Patterns” is coming along nicely with a few members sending in their secret creations, but we could do with more members sending photos in, it keeps the website ticking over during the lockdown and adds a bit of colour to the pages, hopefully we will see restrictions eased before much longer and we can maybe get a line wet before the Summer ends …. fingers crossed !
Hope everyone is keeping safe and well
Member Simon Mullins noticed that Loch Eck is featured in an article in this months Trout & Salmon magazine … maybe worth a read !
In these strange times the website is a bit short of news and photos to post up so we have started a new tab on the website titled “Local Fly Patterns” if anyone has been at the vice and would like to share their secrets that they use on DDAC waters with with the rest of the members and visitors to these pages, please take a photo of your creations and email them to us and we will gladly post them up for the world to see.
Hopefully this pandemic will be under control soon so we can all get back to normality
STAY SAFE AND WELL
